LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - From a stage where he sat with two other general managers at baseball's winter meetings, Rick Hahn happily pronounced new White Sox center fielder Adam Eaton “a dirtbag baseball player.” From a Sox team that some said lacked an edge in 2013, that's a compliment. The Sox acquired the 25-year-old Eaton in a three-team trade with the Diamondbacks and Angels on Tuesday. In exchange, the Sox sent left-handed pitcher Hector Santiago to the Angels. Hahn said Eaton's energy is just a bonus considering he also fills the Sox's need for a left-handed, top-of-the-order hitter who Hahn believes can reach base, use his speed well and play solid defense.

SANTIAGO (Reuters) - Chilean President Sebastian Pinera on Thursday ordered shut a prison where 10 former agents of dictator Augusto Pinochet are serving sentences for human rights violations, a move that came amid public anger over their relative comfortable conditions.

Hector Santiago insists he wasn't wild, although he threw 94 pitches in just four-plus innings and walked three batters. The intriguing left-hander (4-9, 3.53) took the 3-1 loss to the Indians Friday at U.S. Cellular Field as the White Sox dropped their 10th straight to the Indians, against whom they are 2-13 this year. "He's probably a little tired," manager Robin Ventura said of Santiago's control issues. "I would imagine that's part of it. As far as being able to locate, he's just getting into too much trouble.

BALTIMORE - Hector Santiago has been so eager to move beyond his troubled last start that he contemplated going into White Sox manager Robin Ventura's office to declare he was ready to pitch again. The Sox left-hander last pitched Aug. 30, when he gave up four runs and walked five in 3 2/3 innings. The debut of September call-up Erik Johnson and Jose Quintana's quick turnaround after a rain-shortened outing pushed Santiago's next start to Saturday against the Orioles.

BOSTON — The White Sox faced Red Sox pitcher Ryan Dempster on Friday night in his first start since a five-game suspension for throwing at the Yankees' Alex Rodriguez on Aug. 18. But White Sox left-hander Hector Santiago was the pitcher with questionable location in a 4-3 loss to the Red Sox at Fenway Park. Santiago lasted just 32/3 innings, giving up four runs on five hits and five walks. He walked in a run to give the Red Sox a lead in the third and was pulled when David Ortiz broke an 0-for-23 streak with a two-run single in the fourth.

With the end of the White Sox's season a month away, Hector Santiago has no intention of slowing down. The Sox may own the second-worst record in the American League, but young players like the 25-year-old left-hander won't be lacking for motivation as they take on American League East contenders in a 10-game trip against the Red Sox, Yankees and Orioles. "I definitely don't want to get shut down. " he said Wednesday. "I think I have six starts left, and I'm going to fight for every single one of them.
